Hello fellow Book Nerds, Leah here!  

Today I am sharing some of the awesome books that I have had the honor of reviewing for NetGalley so far this year.  I am obsessed with both of these stories, and I look forward to sharing my reviews with all of you.  I have provided below a few links for you to use.  You can add both books to your Goodreads TBR shelf and both Amazon and Barnes & Noble pre-order links are here.  Keep an eye on the blog for reviews, coming soon!

Amazon Synopsis: 

Rose Barnes has got curves for days—and to Angus Drummond, the big, bearded contractor working on her new house, she's the perfect thorn in his side. Little does she know Angus is perturbed on a daily basis by his attraction to this cheery, smart-ass woman with her sunshiny enthusiasm, her kindness, and her beautiful body.

Angus feels he has a debt to pay to the world and doesn't deserve love until he pays it. Best to keep his mind on his work and his hands to himself. But the more Rose sees of Angus's gruff, honorable thoughtfulness, and the more rusty laughter she surprises from him, the more she wants him too.

As their unlikely friendship becomes love, antagonism turns to partnership, and Rose's house becomes a home. But Rose is keeping a secret that could blow up everything with Angus, and sure enough, it comes to light at the worst possible time...

Amazon Synopsis: 

Presley Ayers is not the woman you bring on a camping trip. An accomplished concierge at an exclusive hotel in Great Falls, MI, she knows more about the top ten places for champagne and caviar than she does about the best hiking boots to go stomping around near Lake Michigan. But when she surprises her boyfriend of eight months with a vacation to the Get Lost Lodge and he dumps her instead, Presley decides to rough it solo and take the trip herself.

When Beckett Keller helps the gorgeous woman off the rickety boat and onto Lodge territory, it’s clear to him she's made a mistake. She doesn’t like hiking, fishing, or nature in general, so why did she go on this trip? He’s got other things on his mind though—a crumbling lodge, and his own plans and dreams that are forever deferred—so he doesn’t have time for Ms. Fish-Out-of-Water. Even so, neither Beckett nor Presley can help that inexplicable draw they feel towards each other. He’s all rough stubble and plaid shirts, while she’s all high heels and brand-name athleisurewear.

But you know what they say about opposites.

I think I can, I think I can...REVAMP

Now that I am trying to revamp this page, I want to bring back my daily postings and see if I can actually keep up with it this time around.

I'm really excited to be back into reading and I would really like to see this page take off.  My main goal is to help as many indie authors that I can and spread the word about great books. I also want to review as many books as I can and spotlight upcoming and established authors, as well as bloggers, reviewers, beta readers, etc.  I really want this to be a one stop, all reading blog, with a few added surprises here and there.

My main goal for getting back into reading, aside from the fact that I love it, is that I want to instill reading into my daughter's life.  She just recently turned 3 months old and she is the center of my universe.  I really want to show her now, even at such a young age, how important and fun reading can be.  I've started her library from before she was even born and now she has a ton of books.  She loves story time and I want her to really enjoy reading as she continues to grow.  So I figure, what better way to show her how to love reading, than to read myself.  Furthermore, if I'm going to be reading again, I definitely want to start blogging and promoting again!!

I have to say, my 1st year of promoting and blogging was so amazing.  I talked to so many amazing authors, that I now consider my friends.  I also read some amazing books and got hooked on some killer series.  I've really missed that escape from reality.  I also miss finding out the latest releases and keeping up on the up and coming.  So since I am coming up on my 3 year blogiversary

I'd really like to get the ball rolling!!

So now here are some ideas I have for daily postings: 

Sunday - What's the Scoop Sunday (This will be about what books I plan to be reading or the progress I am making and hints about who will be in the spotlight this week) 

Monday - Meet an Author Monday (A posting from the author of the week....It can contain promotional things, giveaways, an interview, bio, etc.  You never know what you will learn about some of your favorite authors or maybe an author you never heard of)

Tuesday - Turn it up Tuesday (This will be a post about music that provokes an emotion from me.  It can be the background music, the sound of the singers voice, instruments, the lyrics, or even the background story.  Some of these songs may remind me of a book or a character, or they just may be my flavor of the week.  Videos and lyrics will be posted if possible and maybe even info about the artist) 

Wednesday - Watch Out Wednesday (Here is where I will post any promotional things for the week.  Maybe a new release that may be coming out, cover reveal, teaser, etc.  Anything that I find exciting to be happening in the upcoming days or weeks)

Thursday - Throwback Thursday (Here I will highlight some of my favorite stories from when I was little or books that I have read in the past that hold a special place in my heart)

Friday - Favorite Things Friday (Here I will post things that are my favorite....it can be just about anything)

Saturday - Sum it up Saturday (Here is where I will recap all that has happened during the week and where I will leave any reviews that I may have.  I may also have giveaways posted here once I start getting donations and what nots) 

So I really hope this works out this time.  If you or someone you know would like to be spotlighted on this blog, have a book that needs a review, other ideas for daily postings, things you want to see on the blog/Facebook page, or anything else I can help out with book promotions or book related services, please contact me at booknerd101@live.com, comment here, or hit me up on Facebook: Book Nerd 101

Can't wait to get started!!!

Happy Reading Book Nerds
